How we do
Business.

As our company
timeline shows, it wasn't that long ago that we were a one-mine
operation. Through those early, lean years, our culture began to
take shape. And really, they're the values that have always been
what coal mining is all about - always trying to do the best job,
as safely and efficiently as possible.

We've grown a lot in the last 20 years, and the reason is
simple. We put our focus on hiring great people, identifying
reserves, capturing market share, and mining safely and
productively.

We focus on our employees because they are the spirit that
carries us forward into the future. Mining, processing and
transportation is tough work. Their desire to do a great job and
give each day their best effort separates our company from our
competition - and has allowed us to grow.

The old-fashioned American work ethic and ingenuity that has
driven our country over generations is what drives us today. And
it'll be the driving force of our future as well. We are thankful
for our employees' many contributions and efforts that result in
the shared success of all of us at Rosebud Mining Company for many
years to come.
